Where the pirates get drunk...
As part of the Classic-Pirates.com Community Build, Eurobricks member Bricknave shows us his latest MOC. As the builder himself describes it, “Close to the sea, The Drunken Fish Tavern sells fresh(ish) food and alcohol. However, thanks to being far from the heart of the Imperial-Officer infested town, it is also a secret meeting place for pirates on the run!
The (removable) roof looks great, but the most interesting part is the tavern’s interior (with stairs and two floors), so make sure to check it out! There’s quite a party going on in there!

Recruitment by Legorski
Some soldiers are excited to join and fight the good fight while some new recruits may have gone down the pirate path if not for some persuasion from the Imperial Crew. Although the Imperial army does not like to use these measures, sometimes the cause is greater than the man.

what are those pirates using the cove for?
Yes, Derfel Cardarn has reached the frontpage…again! He produces MOC’s in a very high velocity and with a lot of skills. This time, he wanted to make a peaceful scene. At least, that’s what it seems, because there’s a lot going on beneath the surface! A pirate clan has made his headquarters inside a secret cave and now it’s filled with treasure! If you’re a big fan of Lego, you just can’t miss this MOC!

Note the crew working on the yard
EB-member lego fox has made a nice 14-gun ship. It’s for patrolling the british rivers and it has a good number of both soldiers and cannons. The hull design might need some improvement, but lego fox shows us he knows what he’s doing on the rigging. He also uses a great technique for building the masts, so if you want a good mast on your ship, take a look! That’s all for now, want to know more about this great vessel?
